About Frozen Okra:

Fresh okra should always be as green as the okra in this photo.  Unfortunately, we rarely see fresh okra in the markets; and when we do, most of it is turning brown, so we usually buy frozen whole or cut okra.  Okra, also called lady fingers, or bhindi in Indian cuisine is a plant grown for its fibrous pods full of round, white seeds.  Okra originated somewhere near present-day Ethiopia.  Okra is great in soups and in a variety of other dishes.  The high fiber content helps to thicken soups and sauces. See the nutritional chart below.
